Critical Dependencies

Continue to Dependency Graph ↓

A user-generated content gaming platform relying heavily on AI for real-time content moderation and safety at massive scale, alongside AI-assisted content creation tools for its developer community. Roblox's daily active users declined for a second straight quarter to 123 million in Q2 2026 (down from 132 million in Q1 and roughly 144 million in Q4 2025), a drop management attributed largely to safety-related age-gating that curtailed intercommunication features, even as hours engaged grew 43% year-over-year and revenue reached $1.4 billion.

Roblox's Timeline

A sourced, dated history of Roblox's key moments — founding to present.

  1. Jul 2026 · Q2 2026: DAUs fall further to 123 million amid continued safety-driven engagement headwinds

    Roblox ended Q2 2026 with 123 million daily active users, down further from 132 million in Q1 2026 (itself a steep miss against ~144 million consensus estimates), as age-gating and safety restrictions rolled out under the RM3 moderation system continued to suppress user counts and app store sentiment; despite the DAU decline, hours engaged grew 43% year-over-year and revenue reached $1.4 billion.
